Missed most of the first round games but definitely gonna tune in for this one

No. 9 Kansas State vs. No. 16 UMBC

7:45 p.m., Charlotte, N.C., South Region
Player to watch: K-State's leading scorer, Dean Wade, sat out Friday's win over Creighton because of a foot injury, but the Wildcats are hoping he will be able to return Sunday. The All-Big 12 forward is a difference-maker whom the Wildcats will definitely need on the floor to stymie this snowballing UMBC surge.


What will keep Kansas State from moving on: Fate? Destiny? But above all, a second half from UMBC like the one it delivered Friday. The Retrievers scored 53 points after halftime against Virginia, which came into the tournament with the nation's No. 1-rated defense. Can the Retrievers replicate such a magical performance? The college basketball world -- well, outside Manhattan, Kansas -- will be pulling for it.

[BrometheusBob.]

I actually picked UNC to lose this game lol. If only my bracket weren't complete schit otherwise, that could have been a valuable call.

[Beercules]

Damn. UNC

[BrometheusBob.]

Now that my bracket is a complete non-factor, I am really rooting for these UMBC folk to make a deep run. I doubt they could beat Kentucky but wouldn't it be something....
